Mammaws Southern Style Potato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• For the dressing:
• Through the feed opening of a running blender add, 1 at a time, apple cider vinegar, balsamic vinegar, thyme, Dijon mustard, garlic, honey, salt, and ground black pepper. Leaving the blender running, slowly add the olive oil in a thin stream. Set aside until needed.
• For the Salad:
• Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a saute pan and brown sausage. Remove to a cutting board and slice into 1/4-inch pieces, then return to pan and cook over medium heat until cooked through. Using a slotted spoon, remove to paper towels to drain.
• Combine sausage, green beans, 2 tablespoons of the chives, and scallions in a large bowl. Add enough dressing to coat. Then gently fold in potatoes, taste and add enough dressing as needed. Do not feel compelled to use all of the dressing. Serve family style, garnished with remaining chives, and with any extra dressing on the side.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients, except the potatoes, in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place warm potatoes in a large bowl and pour the mixture over potatoes and mix well. Season again with salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan; add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook, uncovered, until tender, 10-15 minutes. Drain; refrigerate until cold. Add eggs, onions and pickles; toss well. Stir in mustard, celery seed and mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper; mix well. Refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• Boil potatoes until they are tender but firm, do not over cook or the salad will be like mashed potatoes.
• Drain potatoes immediately and let them cool completely.
• Add (to the cooled potatoes) all other ingredients.
• Toss lightly until thoroughly mixed making sure not to mash the potatoes.
• Top the salad with the sliced eggs and sprinkle with Paprika.
• We love it while it's still warm.
• Refrigerate if you like it cold for 2 hours.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Pecan-Crusted Chicken:.
• Combine 1 cup finely chopped pecans, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Coat 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves with 2 tablespoons melted butter, then pecan mixture.
• Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked.
• Allow chicken to cool slightly.

• Candied Bacon:.
• In shallow dish, combine brown sugar with seasoned salt.
• Evenly coat bacon with brown sugar mixture.
• In shallow microwave-safe dish, arrange bacon. (I did put mine on paper towels and covered with a piece of paper toweling as well).
• Microwave at HIGH, turning once, 4-5 minutes or until crisp; crumble and set aside. Watch closely so it doesn't burn.
• On large shallow serving platter, arrange greens.
• Evenly top with candied bacon and remaining ingredients, arranging in rows.
